I agree with a quote I recently read. I am told this quote is by a man named David Baird, "Right Thinking depends on knowing what is true, so Right Actions cannot come from things that are not true". I would like to expand on this and say to ever say, "true or not true is irrelevant" is in itself a doorway to wrong thinking. It is never irrelevant to know what is true or not true.

That may seem like a logical statement but sadly I've been hearing this come up more times than I care to admit.

Some recent examples:

When Bill Clinton did Monica, the administration at the time claimed the allegations to be false. Clinton and all his supporters swore it was false. When it was proved true the defense changed to, well who cares if he had sex with her, No one cares about the sex life of a political leader. If it didn't matter why did they lie?

When George Bush claimed Saddam had WMD's and we found none, everyone screamed He Lied, He Lied. Many asked, "Was it a lie or was it a mistake based on bad intelligence"? It didn't matter the consensus was Bush Lied? Even though much of the data we had went back to the Clinton administration and if it were a lie it was essentially a Clinton lie and not a Bush Lie.

Fox News reports on many stories involving socialists in the current administration. They fire back, "Fox Lies"! But do not address the issues. Van Jones is let go (fired) on a Sunday Night and it hardly makes the news, except on Fox. Ron Bloom Obama's Manufacturing Czar says the Free Market is a joke and we agree with Mao. Anita Dunn is Obama's Communications director and she gave a speech to a High School graduating class were she admits the two philosophers she turns to most are Chairman Mao and Mother Theresa. Hardly a word of this gets out, except on Fox. When people do begin to question, we're told she was joking. Really? Fact or Fiction? Double Speak or Thought Crime?

And those are are just a few examples, those of you who follow the news and world events surly know of more, both from the right and left side of the spectrum.

I make a personal habit to not attack anyone, but when someone throws socialism in my face, YES I WILL ATTACK BACK! SOCIALISM is bad for America, that is my view and I'm sticking to it. I will not associate myself or my views with someone who thinks any part of socialism is good. That is why I say if someone likes socialism so much they can move to a socialist country and leave America free. People from all over the world do not come to America because they can't wait until it turns into a cease pool like the place they fled from.

I'm sick to death of hearing people tell me not to discuss religion and politics, it's not polite. I ask why? It's just not nice, or people turn mean when you disagree with them. We should all get along. Well that might work for you while your hitting that bong and saving the planet one tree at a time, but I ask if your argument holds water why can't it stand up to some real debate? Why does Al Gore get away with selling Global Warming but when someone with a microphone try's to ask some serious questions they get shut off? Why can the schools preach to your children about being green when the science is unclear but a god of any kind is out of the question? Isn't putting your faith in a fat man who fly's around the globe and believes eating meat then farting is going to kill the planet is kinda like believing that Santa Claus is going to bring gifts this year? Why is it OK to force that point of view but we can't debate it, because if you don't believe you're somehow a radical. Are the people who push this stuff not the radicals?

Where did this idea come from that Americans should not talk about politics or religion?

I believe many folks in this country were raised the same way, and I believe it's wrong and part of the reason we have the mess we're in. I'm sorry if that offends anyone, I mean no disrespect by it and I won't think less of anyone who sticks to this policy, but it goes against everything this country stands for. My grandparents came from a place were to speak out sometimes meant a bullet might find it's way into your head. Being NICE and not making waves translates into Liberal Political Correctness which I am adamantly opposed to. Political Correctness will ruin this nation if we allow it to. Our founding fathers did not sit idle while others spoke of tyranny. They believed that to be quiet was to give acceptance, Those who did not speak out against what they believed to be wrong were themselves co-conspirators of the tyranny. Because of presidents like Woodrow Wilson and FDR people taught their kids to be quiet and to be respectful and not talk about or share their own opinion if it's wildly different. (PC for don't make waves by sharing your own opinion) You know what happens when you speak against the Government. The Government tends to come after you.

Well the same things are again happening and I will not sit and wait for America to Change into something I don't believe in. My Grandparents taught me to ask questions and to speak my mind because that's what free people do. They came here to be free so they could speak and live the way they choose. and that is what I will continue to do. I will teach my children to question authority when it doesn't make sense. I will teach them that there are no stupid questions and just because you see something on T.V or in a movie it doesn't mean it's real. Even if the man in the movie is an ex-Vice President. I will also teach them that teachers can be and will be wrong once in awhile because it's human to make mistakes and it's critical to know how to think for yourself. I will continue this way until the black car comes to take me away. And if that black car comes for ME, I certainly won't be the first. I only hope I'm not the last.

I love this country and I think there are many people who only want to see it fall so it can be transformed into something very different than the country we love. A country that many fight and die for so we can continue to be free and speak our mind. This is why we must make some hard decisions now as to who we will choose to lead us into the future. What will that future be like? Who is going to choose which doctor you will see? Who is going to choose the temperature you set your furnace? Who is going to choose if you eat steak or sprouts? Who is going to choose what your children will do for a living? Will it be your choice or will you allow someone to make the decision for you because it's better that way for everyone else?

I wonder if Newt Gingrich will now support a real conservative that his parties Liberal Lapdog has had the common sense to get out of the race. I do wish her well and thank her for seeing that her party is better off without her. I only wonder is she might consider joining the democrats. I mean if it looks like a fish and smells like a fish, it's probably a fish.

Sounds like fun right? I mean really, how better to get your point across that you want health care for all then to deface an American Flag with graffiti, right? Well this is one of the finalists judged by the Democratic National Convention. Check it out.

Kinda makes you feel all warm inside doesn't it? Like you want to eat some spiced apple pie and watch 4th of July Fireworks. Heck, why don't we just add Flag defacing to the list of 4th of July festivities. I'll go for that if you do.

Newt Gingrich has chosen to back a Liberal with an (R) next to her name instead of a real conservative. His excuse seems to be that upstate New Yorkers know best so who is he to question them. He seems to be OK with the local upstate Republican Party who decided to run a Liberal. I like the idea of him running for president in 2012 but I'm not sure he has the right mind set if he's going to be OK with his party making decisions like this. Part of the problem with our country right now is that too many people are allowing a political party to make their decisions for them. I thought Newt Gingrich would know better.

If we as Americans are going to fix this country and return it to it's original glory we need to start making better decisions. We need to make our decisions based on ourselves and our values. If a politician is not showing values that mirror your own, don't vote for them! you don't need to agree on every single issue but you should be able to relate. If we keep allowing others to make these decisions for us we deserve what we get.

Doug Hoffman is not a career politician, he's a businessman and just the kind of person we need more of right now. He is not endorsed by ACORN and Nancy Pelosi is not a fan of his nor is he a fan of hers. He understand taxes and the effects they have and he's a military veteran.

His opponents are a Liberal Pelosi Democrat and a Liberal Gay Marriage and Acorn supporting Republican. Dede Scozzafava (R) is endorsed by the NRA and most of her official positions look good on paper (or the web) but how do you expect to get Conservative support when your OK with ACORN?

Everyone needs to look at this race, it doesn't matter if you're not from New York. If he can get elected in New York we can prove to the country that the Tea Parties are not just a fad. You also need to watch this and be prepared for it in case a race like this pops up in your own home district.

Cheers,

Mike

10/31/09 - Newt Gingrich is now Backing Doug Hoffman after the Liberal Republican Dropped out and announced her support for the Democrat Bill Owen. It took the Liberal dropping out and supporting the opposition to drag the support out of him, but we got it done.

People standing in Line waiting for Obama Cash. Another fine example of why President Obama was elected. People actually believed a hoax that money was going to be handed out, just handed out here you go a check for you thanks to Presbo. Is this really where we are now?

TARP Money is lost. Inspector General say tax payers will not be paid back. Well there you have it. Not like anyone who understand how these work really thought we the tax payers were ever going to see any of that money back anyhow. They were never going to write us a check. If they raise taxes or when then raise taxes to help pay for it, it's not like we were going to see a major tax cut when the money was paid back. The whole thing was just another fine example of smoke and mirrors.

H1N1 Vaccine is still not widely available and normal flu vaccine is on back order in many parts of the country. Man I can't wait for National Government Health Care! I only hope it's just as good and timely as the flu vaccines and not worse.

President Obama said that Democrats think for themselves and Republicans all take marching orders. If that isn't the kettle calling the pot black I don't know what is. Now I'm not saying that all Dem's are Liberal and all Repub's are conservative but most people would agree that most Dem's are Liberal and Most Repub's are Conservative. Anyone who understands the mind set behind the typical liberal and the typical conservative knows the truth is the other way around. It's hard to get a room full of conservatives to agree because they usually have their own opinion. That said most conservatives would agree we have too much government involvement in our lives. On the the other hand most Liberals will follow their fellow comrades over a cliff to the nearest protest against Bush, hell most will follow you anywhere if you tell them it's good for the Democrats and bad for the Republicans, and most will tell you how much better everything will be once the government is in control of everything.

IT WILL BE GLORIOUS!!!

I think it's funny how many of of us have been saying for a long time now that Obama is playing the game by the Rules for Radicals playbook and only now are some other media outlets starting to get the idea we were right. If the president can go on a full frontal assault onto a news organization, what's next? What happens if one of the so called real news organizations follows one of the crazy stories Fox covers? Are they next?

Boy in the balloon really? Unlike many people I thought the boy in the balloon was a hoax before the boy slipped up and told the reporters it was for a show. Now the family is going to have charges brought against them. I'm not sure how I feel about that but they probably deserve it.

So the government is not going to raise Social Security Benefits since the economy is flat, but have no fear. You will will receive a $250.00 check compliments of Obama's new plan to assist those who rely on those benefits to get by. Is this really assistance or is it vote buying? Why not just raise the dam check? $250 would amount to $20 a month. What's the difference? If you ask me Seniors will hardly notice a Jackson more each month and the Obama administration loses by making zero impact. Instead they tell them sorry, no raise this year, but since we know you're in need well give you $250. BAM! Obama impact!!!

I really want to know why no one other than Fox is pushing Obama hard on all the transparency issues and promises he made. What happened to all the open debate and posting the bills online? Why is it that now they need to do everything NOW, NOW, NOW! And no one is calling them on it, except Fox News. The Senate actually debated on and ultimately decided not to allow the people to see the preliminary Baucus bill. When did it become acceptable for them to decide to not keep the Citizens in the loop? I did say Citizens, not Subjects!!!

And this brings me to the war on Fox News. Is you ask me the Obama administration and the Democrats can war against Fox News all they want. Humans can be expected to do the unexpected at almost every turn. But we are predictable creatures. And nothing can more predictable than humans wanting more of something that they are told they can't have. So KEEP IT UP! the more you tell the world Fox is BAD the more people who don't usually watch Fox will turn it on to see what all the hype is about. They might even ask themselves, why didn't I hear that on MSNBC?

I am really sick to death of how this whole Rush Limbaugh thing has played out. Aside from the fact most of the"Limbaugh Comments" people were mad about were not even real is the fact that such a fire storm against Limbaugh would never happen to someone like say Rev. Sharpton. How many individuals are there who have made real statements and done things that simply get over looked. All Jessie Jackson had to do when he was caught cheating was to apologize and it was forgotten. Was this whole Limbaugh fiasco not the same dam thing as the Red Scare? "Are you now or have you ever been a racist"?

Would Rush Limbaugh have been bad for the NFL? I don't know, it seems like maybe players behaving badly would be a worse problem that owners who have a radio show during the day. Some people might think players who run over and kill pedestrians while drunk might be bad. Dog Fighting Quarterbacks might put the NFL in a negative light. Wide receivers who shoot themselves in the leg while out attending a night club might make people think twice about allowing their children to get so involved in the NFL. P.O.S Scumbags who like to "make it rain" at the strip club might not create the wholesome environment that some people expect from might be role models.

People who actually listen to Rush and pay attention understand how ridiculous it is to pigeon hole him as a racist. Is he divisive? Maybe a little but only because liberals make it so easy. I'm not suggesting anyone needs to follow my lead on this one but I'm going to think long and hard before I spend anymore money on the NFL. I may not stop watching the Chicago Bears all together but I'm certainly not going to be going to any games or buying any new official NFL gear for a long long time. If the NFL doesn't want conservatives money that's fine, they won't get any more of mine.

I'm glad Barack Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. After all he has ended the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He's closed Gitmo. Then he single handily forged peace in the middle east and rid the world of all nuclear weapons.

WHAT!!!

Obviously I'm not the only one who's writing about this so I'm going to keep it brief and to the point. When did they start giving the Nobel Peace Prize away to people who talk about peace? Is it really that meaningless now. I guess Al Gore did get one for making a movie about a theroy so who knows. The Nobel should not be an award for good effort like a smiley face sticker on your 3rd graders math test. Our president has not even completed a whole term yet and he hasn't actually done anything for peace aside from TALK about it.

Gitmo is not closed.Our soldiers are still dying in action.Muslims still hate Jews and Jews Still hate Muslims.Many nations including ourselves still have many nuc's.Democrats and Republicans are still mortal enemies.

But in Obamas defense I guess it would be hard to actually have done any of those things in the 12 days he was POTUS when the deadline for the Nobel Prize came in February. At least the Presidents speech was humble, he did question himself whether he deserved the award.

The ACLU wants a Veterans memorial in the Desert that has stood for 70 years to be taken down. The memorial is a simple cross that they say represents the governments endorsement of a religion. It's a simple cross in a rock in the desert! It's there as a memorial to fallen heroes of a past war. Why does The ACLU has continue this fight to secularize every facet of American life? Could it be because America is now one of the largest Muslim nations? Why is it that so many groups have come to protest against moves like this but the ACLU and organizations like it keep winning these ridiculous battles?

I think these are some important questions we need to ask ourselves and our representatives in Washington. Is this how we really want our country to change? Do we want to live in country where the religious beliefs of most of the citizens and our founders fathers is supressed because of those who find it offensize and simply can't understand it?

Michael Bechloss once told Don Imus that Barrack Obamas IQ was so high it's off the charts. When Don asked him what Obamas IQ was, he admits that he did not know the actual IQ. Many others since then have made similar claims about how clever and wise our great leader is and more importantly how much more intelligent he is than Bush. Well I'm going to pose a few questions for all to consider.

If Obama is so smart why did he not know about ACORN getting so much money?

How did he not know about Van Jones being so radical?

How did he not know about the Tea Parties?

He sat in Rev. Wrights Church for 20 years but he didn't know how radical he was.

He did not know that the deal he received from a huge contributor Tony Rezko was much better than normal.

Also he forgot that he made a promise to use public financing for the general election if his Republican opponent would do the same, oops.

He traveled to Copenhagen with 2 Jets to cheer lead Chicago for the 2016 games not knowing that Chicago was the least favorite choice of the IOC .

The smartest person ever to be President of the United States forgets and doesn't notice an awful lot.
